Genuine Russian Imperial Army WWI Solhberg M17 helmet. This type of so called "Russian Adrian" was produced in Finland (part of Russian Empire till 1917's) this is the main reason why M17 Sohlberg also named "Finnish Adrian". Sohlberg M17 used during WW2 by the Finnish home guard and on the home front by antiaircraft units from Helsinki. The helmet was painted on black color by the Finnish during WW2.
Original cotton liner and leather chinstrap were replaced on reindeer skin liner and chinstrap. Good condition but crest has a damage - small hole. Still a good item for the collector and reenactors. It's really hard to find such helmet these days.
